Each month The Actors’ Hub comes alive as GAP students try out their skills on an intimate live audience
The Lab is the engine room where students are brewing their craft in a live professional setting. Audience members get to experience a different performance each month as various skills of the craft are explored.
Being part of our Lab audience has so many benefits, not just for students but for our performing arts community in Perth, as we all play a role in developing our future superstars!

Stillness Speaks
In this Lab, the students explore how STILLNESS can empower a performance.
As part of their studies the students explore various genres and styles of theatre. The second year students are then given the task of devising a short scene (or two) using a specific theatrical genre/style. Not only do they write the piece but they also cast it, stage it and one student directs it. So the students are responsibke for the whole production.
This month, there will be a piece devised by the students – a farce. Sounds like fun but farce is one of the most difficult styles as it must be played very seriously, as all collapses around them.
We will also see a short excerpt from “Is There Anybody Out There?” which has been on tour down south and wiil be going, as part of the Blind Eye Trilogy, to Carnarvon next month .
